Pilgrim Boy With Apple Basket for Thanksgiving
Coloring guide
Front and center is a smiling young boy dressed as a pilgrim, holding a woven basket full of apples. His outfit includes a tall buckled hat, a wide collar, a long-sleeved tunic, short pants, tall socks and buckled shoes. A big leafy tree trunk climbs the right side behind him, with leaves drifting down among the branches, and small grass tufts sit around his feet. Large shapes and clean outlines make this free printable a good match for preschoolers and early elementary kids. Red and green apples go nicely with a golden-brown basket, and oranges and yellows work for the leaves. Black and gray on the hat and shoes help the buckles pop. A handy pick for a Thanksgiving activity at school. More like this: explore the Thanksgiving, New Year and Easter coloring page collections.
